The adrenal glands are triangular shaped organs resting on top of each kidney. These glands have many different functions in the body, including the synthesis of cholesterol for conversion into steroid hormones, the synthesis of hormones which travel to specific organs to help counter stress, as well as the digestion of food, but especially carbohydrates, sugars and protein. There are 2 parts to the adrenal glands - the cortex and the medulla. The adrenal cortex helps to maintain salt and water balance in the body. It is also involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates and the regulation of blood sugar. The cortex produces a number of sex hormones from the 'mother hormone' DHEA. The medulla of the adrenal gland produces the hormone epinephrine, also called adrenaline, when the body is under stress. This hormone speeds up the rate of metabolism in order to help cope with stressful situations. The functioning ability of the adrenal glands is most often impaired due to excessive use of cortisone therapy for disorders such as arthritis, eczema and asthma. Long term use of cortisone drugs causes the adrenal gland to shrink in size. Adrenal cortical failure is also caused by pituitary disease and tuberculosis. The adrenals are part of the glandular system and although they are small in size, they have a powerful effect on health and vitality. We have 2 adrenal glands, 1 directly on top of each kidney and they are about the size of a large bean. Normally each gland weighs about 5 grams. In conditions of stress, they can shrink and become smaller or when they are overworked, they can become 4 times larger. The adrenals can become damaged from continuous stress, which goes beyond their ability to recover from, before the next stressful period comes along. Your diet is essential, if you want to support your adrenal glands and feel better. It is vital that people who suffer from adrenal problems stick to a strict dietary regime that eliminates rapidly absorbed carbohydrates sugars. This includes sweets, cakes and biscuits and foods made from white flour. Eating these causes a sudden rise in blood sugar, with a subsequent sudden drop. Small meals that are correctly combined (containing a small carbohydrate and a medium sized portion of protein), as well as small snacks of nuts /or fruit between meals is advisable. This will help to prevent the drop in the blood sugar levels, which occur two to three hours after eating. A protein deficient diet, with emphasis on simple carbohydrates, especially refined sugars, depletes adrenal function and fails to restore adequate nutritional support to these glands .In order to keep the adrenal glands functioning properly, stress must be avoided. Continuous and prolonged stress from troubled marriages, bad job conditions, illness or feeling's of low esteem or loneliness can be detrimental to the adrenal glands. Because the adrenals must work harder under stressful situations, continuous stress will impair their functioning ability. Poor nutritional habits, smoking, stimulant, alcohol and drug abuse can also contribute to adrenal failure.
